Dealers are not allowed to sell the car until 10/21. It was 10/28. I was just advised of the date change yesterday. My car has been in the USA for a couple weeks and is not on a hold for any type of technical issue.

Where are you expecting your car? My car has been sitting at the port since Sept 21. I am in Chicago and expect the car to come at one of the East Coast ports.

My SA just informed me that the cars will start to be shipped to dealers from VPC on Oct 18 and retail hold is until Oct 21. Depending on where you live, we may get our cars next Saturday!

Just heard from Genius that I'm on the Hoegh Jacksonville ship, scheduled to arrive in Baltimore on Nov 4. Car was picked up late last week.

I confirmed with Genius line that my car is at VPC despite the fact that bmw mygarage says its still at the port in ny. My deal is closed on Mondays but i will check in with him tomorrow to see if he knows a schedule. I am less than 100 miles from vpc so they cam deliver whenever they choose to

I suspect by the port in NJ. Extremely close to Manhattan. Less than 100 miles from Southampton.

My dealer got back to me that he sees no delivery update in his system as of Tuesday Oct 17. I will update if/when I hear more.

Same here. But my status updated to In Transit on the 16th instead of the 11th when it actually left Bremerhaven.

Mine entered the queue around two weeks ago, and it's been stuck at that stage since. I suspect it will just pop up as finished, since depending on the factory, you don't typically get a blow by blow that they show.
